Only for precautionary reasons, I guess.

 

The Panthers are likely doing due diligence and being cautious, but this is a situation worth keeping an eye on. None of the four running backs the Panthers worked out are much good, though they are quality options as emergency depth. Former Jacksonville Jaguars RB Jalen Parmele, intriguing back Kahlil Bell, former Denver Broncos quality depth backup Lance Ball, and veteran Brandon Jackson were all worked out by the Panthers.

Stewart appears to be having some ankle issues again,remember reading this on twitter via the Panthers feed. That could be he only reason that we are looking to sign a RB. If this is true,then it doesnt look like he may ever be healthy enough to last a full season. Had high hopes for him as a featured back,but this may never come to pass.

He had ankle issues after coming back with no off season to speak of. Do you expect everything to be hunky dory? TD gets acupuncture on his knee every week and it seems to be swollen to the size of a softball. Nothing to see here.

I actually don't think that is the case.

This was tweeted by Aaron Wilson (@RavensInsider) earlier today, we signed Smith two days ago.

Workouts are only held on Tuesdays. We signed Armond to PS two days ago, which was Tuesday.

#Panthers worked out 3 RBs on Tues: Brandon Jackson, Lance Ball, and Jalen Parmele. RB Kahlil Bell visited.

7:27am - 28 Nov 13

Not trying to sound disrespectful, but do you really think that we are working guys out to replace a guy next season?

 

That doesn't make much sense when we are in the thick of the playoff race.

To sound disrespectful, what I think is that my post was, was nothing more than a thought of what could be a reason or one of many, as to why we're working out 4 RB's when we are in the thick of the playoff race.

And you asked do I really think that we are working guys out to replace a guy next season? Yes I think that it makes perfect sense. If we can find someone with similar attributes to the player we'd like to release, cut or trade, why not. What if Stew is still hurting and we're looking for someone to fill in so that we can put him (Stew) on IR.

      Grading the Panthers' 2026 Draft Class

      By DaveThePanther2008 · Posted

      Maybe a bit of a homer take but I can't give us a grade lower than A.   Freeling was arguably the best LT prospect in the draft.  His athletic ability is off the chart and at 6'7" that can move.  It was a no brainer pick.   Hunter's key word is Violence. Putting him next to Brown should scare an offensive coordinator. These two give Scourton and Phillips plenty of chances to get one on one opportunities. Brazzell, another tall receiver with sprinter speed.  Our WR room is filled with tall talented WR.  Brazzell is going to give us a WR that can take to roof off the defense.  Basically Jimmy Horn with size. W. Lee III has a nickname of the Blanket. (heard this on the Beleav podcast with J. Stewart)  What a great name.  A great value in the 5th round. Hecht A strong, fast and extremely smart center. Many had him listed as the best center in the draft.  He's most likely a starter sooner than later. Wheatley A good safety in round 5.  Someone who could see playing time.   Kuwatch  I love this pick.  At minimum he will be a key piece on special teams and with some good coaching he'll see some packages where he'll play.  His down piece is he doesn't stay up in the running game.  Good coaching will fix this.  He reminds me a bit of A.J. Klein.   All these picks were great value.  I believe everyone of them were graded higher than the pick we took them.   Dan Morgan is IMO doing a great job turning this team into a good team with great depth.

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      By Tbe · Posted

      Sure, that is possible. That’s what, an extra 55 yards a game on average and 7 more TDs? What if he’s just 15th?  I imagine they would extend him in that situation due to the belief that he’ll keep trending up. maybe a 3 year contract to prove he can be top 10? Sounds like a Tepper plan.
